1/48 AMT F7F-2N Tigercat night fighter
Hi all, I hope you are having a good Christmastime with friends and family.
I have had this kit sitting for a while waiting to get the outer wing panels properly set to finish the kit. It is the AMT 1/48 F7F-2N.
I made use of Obscureco replacem[...]
1/48 AMT F7F Tigercat
This is another one of my favorite planes.
This one was built with the addition of a set of True Details resin wheels. I had heard some of the horror stories about how the wheels fall apart after a while so I replaced them right off the bat.[...]
1/72 Monogram F7F- COIN
Something I did a few years ago, Snakeyes and gun pod came from Monogram F-4, rocket pods from Heller T-28, AIM-9's from spare parts box, fuel tanks from Hasegawa T-33, seat- Airfix Tornado. Not sure about the decals but they are S. Vietnam [...]
1/48th AMT F7F-3N Tigercat
I found this F7F-3N AMT kit to be a smooth build with no noticeable problems other than those that were self-inflicted. Despite filling the nose with lead, I found the model to be a dedicated tail-sitter. AMT must have been aware of that as they[...]

1/48 Grumman F7F-3(N) Tigercat, USMC, Korean War
This is AMT/Ertl's original boxing of the Tigercat, the tools now owned by Italeri and since reboxed under their brand with minor improvements. The AMT kit is notorious for the awful tires used which would literally melt the wheels after awh[...]
1/48 F7F Tigercat, Spurious paint scheme
Here is a 1/48 F7F that I did a while back. It was a first attempt to replicate the "blurred prop" effect seen in photos of real aircraft. I think it turned out well.
The blurred props were done with clear plastic that was masked and sprayed wi[...]
AMT F7F-3 Tigercat
Hi Everyone
One of my favourite aircraft is the Tigercat, I first saw one in a old Tamiya Mag, and planned to build one myself one day.
The kit is pretty good, the plastic is very soft though. Plenty of flash and my kit had been attacked by th[...]
F7f-3 junglecat
Finished this one last year. It took me a year to build to the day I called it finished. Posted on another site, but one of my all time favorites. And fun to build.
It is a 1/48 scale AMT/ERTL F7F-3 Tigercat mostly out of the box,and parts from[...]
